Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive adapts some of the best parts of “Minecraft” to a real-time strategy game but the rest of the game needs work.
takes the franchise’s core concepts and adapts them to a real-time strategy game.In the campaign, players take on the role of the hero, who’s transported into a world facing a terrible menace. Piglins have invaded from a dimension called the Nether, and they’re corrupting the Overworld.
Those familiar with the “Minecraft” formula will understand half of the gameplay. Gathering materials is as important as ever, but the hero doesn’t mine for them. Instead, the protagonist sends out sprite-like Allays, which harvest wood, stone, coal, diamonds, iron and Redstone. Other resources such as gold, Prismarine and Lapis can be obtained by raiding Piglin outposts.
Using those materials, players can build defenses around each village. This is where “Minecraft Legends” lets players’ creativity shine. They can line up walls to make mazes and dot the area with towers, cannons and traps. They can create a gantlet outside the village walls. The only limit is that construction requires allays and resources so if players want to build an elaborate structure they’ll need to constantly gather wood, stone and other materials.
Later in the campaign, Zombies, Archer Skeletons and Creepers come to the hero’s aid. They, too, want to defend their home against the piglins and they each have their own roles. Creepers are like sappers that explode and do major damage to walls and other structures while the Skeletons deal damage from afar and Zombies are great melee fighters.
